There is no comparison here. 474's were not the aircrafts for the operation we had then. Two old ex aircrafts from Singapore Air Lines was a burden to us. Ultimately these did only one flight for a week to Singapore, that was also due to maintenance requirements.

Ah ha..... my friend weli.... it was nice to see you again.My dear, as you're an aircraft engineer, i would like to thanking you to contribute this thread.

Actually, i just need to compare,"as per 1984 we had such resources.... for that time period such as 1984.."

"as per now.. our national airline should have a implementation more than present right? as i know now we're flying with only 14 air crafts with srilankan airlines for below 30 countries and below 50 destinations.

That was the point i tried to expose...i hope you will add more your comments into my thread.

Sorry, I couldln't resposed earlier as I had connecting problemems from my sister's PC as I was away from base.

Sri Lankan is doing well now. Don't compare 1984 with 2010. The product we offer now is much more superior. During Emirates manaagement they went for big expanstions. We didn't get the retrns that were expected.

We are are a forward looking airline and will be amongst the BEST unless the government lets in starch. SriLankan will stand its ground in a leveled playing field. We need the government or rather the SLCAA to make a level fielid.

The right Gyes are running the show. Sorry, I can'y give the same assuarence for MIHIN. Sorry for all typos. I couldn't run a spell chack.
